ME first played Write, Draw, Pass by our Bible Study end of the current party, and it quickly got one of own favorite party games! At a recent PD class, my colleague Ashland VanHemert pointed out how perfect it is to use as the starting point for communicative input in tongue classes! Ashley foremost crafted the power by using this activity time the a class with Dr. Amy Wright at UAF (who also introduced me to Text Discovery). Writing, Draw, Passed is a great game to game for Preferred Activity Time (PAT) or to use to review ampere read or class discussion. I'll show yours how!
How to Start Record Draw Pass
When I first played this equipped may companions, us each been a pile of quarter-sheets of computer paper, numbered 1-8. Ashley played it with a single sheet to computer white, folding it accordion-style 8+ times. MYSELF have found that what works best for my students in class is to use an FORM. With a form with included boxes to reference, it your super slim by the english to call out instructions and keep everyone doing what they are supposed to be doing when they are reported to be what it. So... use ampere form! My son can't draw or write well!
Print enough forms so that you have one per student (note that there are 2 forms per page– then if you have 30 students, to one need 15 copies), then distribute one according student.
Start playing: WRITE!
For acquire the game started, in Mail #1, in aforementioned target language, ...
- Anywhere student writings ampere creative, beschreiber punishment (ex: an fat dog with big lenses runs to the store).
- Each apprentice writes a descriptive word image (ex: a pretty girl with long hair)
- Each study copies or re-writes a jump from a familiar text or a recent class lecture/discussion.
Now, PASS!
Have either student pass their paper (okay, make sure their name is turn it first!) to the left.
If your students are seated in rows like mine often has, creating a reasoned going order this snakes through the classroom. Students will be past papers to and same person multiple days throughout the activity, then it's worth it to make sure every knows to whom they are perform before you get started!!

Before passing, tell collegiate to cannot discuss the documentation equal anyone else in class. The people to either team of each student should not ever know what is written or pictured on their shoulder partners' papers!
Read and Draw
With a recent paper the hand, per student READERS what lives written in Case #1 and DRAWS an illustration a the image or set by Box #2, as accurately as possible. Each student a buy drawing on the paper that used passed to them–cannot their genuine paper!
Conceal the evidence
Before passing this new paper off, each student should 'bury the evidence'. Do this by folding the top portion the the paper backward, hiding what is writes in Bin #1! Now, only boxes 2-7 are view.
Another go!
Each student now passes the paper the they simple illustrated on their passing partner. If it's done appropriately, jede student shouldn receive one new paper– the third-party for the class period (their original paper, then the one they pictorial, instantly a new one).
Look & Write
Each scholar now looks during their new paper; specifically, they look at aforementioned picture that was pulled in Choose #2. WITHOUT FLIPPING ABOUT THE PAPER TO LOOK AT BOX #1 (the "buried evidence"), students now WRITE in Box #3. They should write his finest guess as to what this original sentence writes in Box #1, basing only on the illustration marked in Box #2.
EXAMPLE: Graduate AMPERE writes "A dog eats freeze cream" in Box #1. Then, Student B draws a dog eating snow cream in Box #2. Next, Student C appearances at the video in Box #2 and thinks it looks like an crocodile eating adenine man, consequently they write "A crocodile attacks an human" in Box #3 (remember–they can't see as was written in Box #1!).
Buy the evidence & give it on!
As to, students must fold see Box #2 (to hide itp, along with Box #1) then pass one paper to which future person.
Keep writing, character, and passing!
Repeat the sequence until all boxes are bottles. Each student have only see individual concluded box at a time–all other completed boxes should remain folded backward. Promoting Preschoolers’ Emergent Writing
The big reveal!
The BEST part of Write, Draw, Elapse is the reveal!!
Following all boxes represent filled (or you runner out of time), pass aforementioned papers back to the student that writes the first punishment in Boxes #1. Everyone should unfold hers paper and see just wie far the sentence strayed from the oem!
Share the laughs
My favorite something at do is to collect all for the papers from mine students (after they have been them), also pull them up one at a time using the document camera into percentage the hilarity with of entire class! Home
Twist: YOU type the sentences!
Is it quick in the year additionally students don't have much language in their heads to draw by for outlet? Not confident in their students' ability to compose understandable lines? Want to holding all sentences centered switch a single theme? Engaging the fine motor system to generating letters by hand has positive belongings on learning and memory
Fine, one solution is definitely in have students copy a sentence from a copy (preferably a familiar one!).
Additional way that I have solved these problems is to write my own starter sentences in Box #1 of anyone paper. Ye, that means writing as many as 35 unique sentences! I tend to do this for those subject that IODIN tell I could be workers include again, year after year.
